1. Find answers that meet the first-order optimizationconditions, identify the shape of the function graph to determinewhether these answers are maximum value or minimal value.

(a) f(x) = e^x + e^-x

(b) f(x) = x^3/(x+1)

(c) f(x) = x/lnx

2. Find answers that meet the second-order optimizationconditions, and determine whether these answers are maximum valueor minimal value.

(a) f(x) = e^x + e^-x

(b) f(x) = x^3/(x+1)

(c) f(x) = x/lnx
